มองเศรษฐกิจชีวภาพ ในประเทศไทย
Summary
This briefing by the Stockholm Environment Institute examines Thailand's bioeconomy, focusing on the use of sugarcane and cassava to drive economic growth, reduce social inequality, and mitigate environmental impacts. It details the policy frameworks, institutional structures, and the specific socio-environmental challenges associated with the industrialization of bio-resources.
Key insights
- The Thai government's bioeconomy vision is integrated into several national frameworks: the 20-year National Strategy (2018-2037), which emphasizes social fairness and environmental balance; the 12th National Economic and Social Development Plan, which targets poverty reduction and income equality; and the Thailand 4.0 policy (launched in 2016), which targets 10 'S-curve' industries including bioenergy, biochemicals, and future food.
- Bioeconomy development faces significant environmental and social risks. Environmental concerns include competition for limited agricultural land—with only 0.37 million hectares of land in Thailand deemed suitable for sugarcane—and water scarcity, as only 10% of sugarcane areas in the Northeast and Central regions have irrigation. Socially, sugarcane workers have been found to earn less than the national minimum wage of 300 baht per day, and households switching from rice to sugarcane report lower food security and nutrition.
